Gateway Marketplace

Gateway Marketplace is a power center in Detroit, Michigan. The complex is located at the southeast corner of 8 Mile Road (M-102) and Woodward Avenue (M-1), adjacent to the Jason Hargrove Transit Center and near the former site of the Michigan State Fair complex. The complex contains around forty inline tenants on its 35 acres (140,000 m2). Development Gateway Marketplace (originally planned as The Shoppes at Gateway Park) is an outdoor shopping mall with approximately 330,000 square feet (30,658.0 m2) of retail space. Originally, construction on the property was slated to begin in March 2007; Chicago, Illinois-based General Growth Properties, the mall's developer, later delayed groundbreaking on the mall until early 2008, in order to secure the interest of prospective tenants. In 2008, General Growth Properties withdrew from the project. Gateway Marketplace was then developed by REDICO, a Michigan-based commercial real estate firm. REDICO also acts as property manager of the retail complex. REDICO's Gateway Marketplace won a CREW Impact Award for New Construction in 2014. JCPenney signed a letter of interest in March 2007 to be included as an anchor store of the complex. This JCPenney would have been the first full-line department store within Detroit's city limits since the closure of a Crowley's near downtown in 1999. JCPenney's plans to open a store at the site fell through in 2008 when the national retailing landscape began to suffer from a credit crunch and dwindling shopper dollars. At a December 2007 meeting, Detroit City Council members held a meeting to approve a special tax status regarding the mall's construction. In April 2008, Marshalls indicated interest in the development. The mall project was later pushed back to mid-2008 due to a lack of confirmed tenants, and has been further delayed since. In August 2009, the Meijer chain announced it would open its first store with the city limits of Detroit at the $90 Million Shoppes at Gateway Park. Two other stores including HomeGoods also announced they have signed on to share the 40,000 square feet (3,700 m2) designed for the mall's secondary anchor. The mall was scheduled to open in 2011. Late in the year, the project was renamed Gateway Marketplace. REDICO began development in early 2012. Meijer opened on July 25, 2013. Other tenants include K&G, Marshalls, Payless, Applebees, AT&T, Edible Arrangements, Planet Fitness, Five Below, Footlocker, McDonald's, Metro PCS, Mr. Alan's Elite, Petco, PNC Bank, Rainbow, Starbucks, Subway, SVS Vision, Wingstop and others.

Gay, Michigan

Gay is an unincorporated community in Keweenaw County in the U.S. state of Michigan. The community is located within Sherman Township. History The town was named after Joseph E. Gay, one of the founders of the Wolverine Mining Company and Mohawk Mining Company. Gay had explored around the Keweenaw Peninsula, searching for areas where mining and milling could be viable. This proved successful in 1896 when Gay followed up on the discovery of copper by a lumberman named Ernest Koch, establishing the Mohawk Mine in nearby Mohawk to take advantage of the situation. In need of an improvement in their copper production, the Mohawk Mining Company built the Mohawk Mining Company Stamp Mill in Gay in 1898. The mill processed copper from the Mohawk Mining Company and the Wolverine Mining Company. The residual sand from the stamping process was dumped into Lake Superior, increasing the town's land area greatly. The mill closed in 1922, leaving only the large smokestack and ruins remaining. At its peak, Gay had 1,500 residents across 117 homes. These residents worked at the town's office, warehouse, blacksmith, dock, pump house, and the copper stamping mill. Children attended the town's 250-student schoolhouse. However, the town began to decline after the 1922 closure of the stamping mill. 11 years later in 1933, the Mohawk Mining Company ceased operations in the area. The town struggled on, eventually losing its last industry, logging, in 1965 as railroads left the region. Stamp Sands Restoration Starting in 2019, the EPA has provided $3.7 million to the United States Army Corps of Engineers to begin dredging the stamp sands at Grand Traverse Harbor near Gay. This is being done in an attempt to restore fish spawning grounds, as well as protect the Buffalo Reef in Lake Superior. Gallery References
Gay (Michigan)

Gay es una área no incorporada en el condado de Keweenaw en el estado estadounidense de Michigan.​ Se encuentra a 12 millas del lago Linden en la isla Copper, en el extremo occidental de la península superior. El gobierno local es proporcionado por Sherman Township. Historia La ciudad recibió su nombre en honor a Joseph E. Gay, uno de los fundadores de las compañías Mohawk Mining Company y Wolverine. Gay había explorado la península de Keweenaw en busca de zonas donde la minería y la molienda pudieran ser viables. Esto tuvo éxito en 1896 cuando Gay aprovechó el descubrimiento de cobre hecho por un leñador llamado Ernest Koch y estableció la mina Mohawk en la cercana localidad de Mohawk para aprovechar la situación.​ Con la necesidad de mejorar su producción de cobre, la Mohawk Mining Company construyó el molino de sellos de la Mohawk Mining Company en Gay en 1898. El molino procesaba cobre de la Mohawk Mining Company y de la Wolverine Mining Company.​ La arena residual del proceso de estampado fue vertida al Lago Superior, aumentando considerablemente la superficie de la ciudad. El molino cerró en 1922, quedando únicamente la gran chimenea y las ruinas. En su apogeo, Gay tenía 1.500 residentes en 117 casas.​ Estos residentes trabajaban en la oficina de la ciudad, en el almacén, en la herrería, en el muelle, en la estación de bombas y en la fábrica de estampado de cobre. Los niños asistían a la escuela de 250 estudiantes de la ciudad. Sin embargo, la ciudad comenzó a decaer después del cierre de la fábrica de estampación en 1922. 11 años después, en 1933, la Mohawk Mining Company cesó sus operaciones en la zona. La ciudad siguió luchando y finalmente perdió su última industria, la tala de árboles, en 1965, cuando los ferrocarriles abandonaron la región. Restauración de Stamp Sands A partir de 2019, la EPA ha proporcionado 3,7 millones de dólares al Cuerpo de Ingenieros del Ejército de los Estados Unidos para comenzar a dragar las arenas subterráneas. Esto se está haciendo en un intento de restaurar las zonas de desove de los peces, así como proteger el arrecife Buffalo en el lago Superior.​​ Referencias

Teatro Gem (Detroit)

El Teatro Gem (en inglés Gem Theatre) es un teatro de artes escénicas ubicado en Detroit, la ciudad más poblada del estado de Míchigan (Estados Unidos). Construido en 1927 en estilo neocolonial español, alberga un teatro de dos niveles con asientos tradicionales en filas y pasillos junto con asientos a nivel del escenario en mesas de cabaret. El Teatro Gem fue incluido en el Registro Nacional de Lugares Históricos en 1985.​ Comparte vestíbulo con el Teatro Century, de estilo cabaré, construido en 1903. Historia En 1902, el Twentieth Century Club, un grupo de mujeres, construyó un edificio estilo misión para albergar su club. El edificio, ahora el Teatro Century, está construido con ladrillo rojo adornado con arenisca blanca. El primer piso originalmente albergaba un comedor, mientras que el segundo piso albergaba un auditorio de 400 asientos.​ En 1928, el miembro del club Century contrató a George D. Mason para diseñar un teatro adicional al edificio del Century Club. El edificio de estilo neorrenacentista español resultante fue arrendado a la cadena Little Theatre, que proyectaba películas extranjeras, y el edificio se conocía como Little Theatre.​ En 1933, debido a la Gran Depresión, el Club del Siglo XX se disolvió. El Little Theatre, sin embargo, continuó, sufriendo varios cambios de nombre: The Rivoli en 1932, Drury Lane (y luego en Europa en 1935, Cinema en 1936 y Vanguard Playhouse en 1960.​ The Vanguard ofreció teatro en vivo en lugar de películas.​ Finalmente, en 1967, el teatro recibió el nombre de Gem.​ El edificio se utilizó como sala de cine para adultos hasta que cerró en 1978. Poco después, el desarrollador Charles Forbes compró el edificio combinado Gem/Century y comenzó una restauración completa en 1990.​ Reabrió en 1991. Protegido de la demolición durante la renovación urbana de Comerica Park, la nueva sede de los Tigres de Detroit, el Teatro Gem y el Teatro Century se trasladaron cinco cuadras a su nueva ubicación en 333 Madison Street el 16 de octubre de 1997.​ A una distancia de 563 metros, es la reubicación más lejana conocida de un edificio considerable.​ Tras una pequeña restauración, volvió a abrir a finales de 1998.​ Referencias Bibliografía adicional Hauser, Michael; Marianne Weldon (2006).

Holly Hotel

The Holly Hotel, also known as the Hirst Hotel, is an inn located at 110 Battle Alley in Holly, Michigan. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1980. It currently operates as a restaurant. History The Hirst Hotel was built in 1891 by John Hirst to cater to the flow of railroad passengers passing through Holly. Having the largest and finest dining room in the area, the hotel rapidly became the social center of the surrounding community. The hotel itself was one of the best in the area, and attracted guests such as Michigan Governors Thomas E. Dewey and G. Mennen Williams and temperance crusader Carrie Nation. In 1912, businessman Joseph P. Allen bought the building. In 1913, the hotel suffered a disastrous fire, completely destroying the second and third floors. Allen rebuilt the structure, but in a somewhat more modest style, with a shorter tower, plainer second floor fenestration, and plainer porches. The hotel reopened as the Allendorf in late 1913. In 1913, Henry Norton purchased the building, redecorated it, and renamed it the Hotel Norton. However, as the passenger train traffic dwindled and finally stopped, the hotel became less desirable, and the building eventually became just a local restaurant. In 1978, the hotel suffered another disastrous fire. Local resident Dr. Leslie Sher purchased the building and began restoring it, rebuilding the roof and tower to the original 1891 design. The building was reopened in 1979 as a restaurant. Every state governor since that time has dined at the Holly Hotel, as well as President George H. W. Bush during his 1992 campaign. On June 21, 2022, the building sustained heavy damage in another fire that destroyed multiple other buildings nearby in Holly's downtown. The owners plan to rehabilitate the hotel and reopen in the summer of 2023. Description The Holly Hotel is a 2-1/2 story rectangular red brick Queen Anne structure with a hip roof, measuring about 50 feet wide by 75 feet long. A three-story, helmet-domed, octagonal corner tower is located between two primary facades. The longer facade facing Battle Alley is asymmetrical, containing a columned porch sheltering a pair of entry doors flanked by single windows on one side and two, large, tripartite windows under broad segmental arches on the other. The second floor has plain, one-over-one sash openings. Two large gabled dormers covered with shingling are located low on the steeply pitched hip roof. The narrower elevation facing Broad Street is symmetrical, with a central entrance topped with a small-paned transom and flanked by segmentally arched, tripartite windows of the same type as those on the Battle Alley elevation. A small porch shelters the entrance. On the second floor are three one-over-one sash windows. A tall gable above contains three, closely spaced, plain, one-over-one, sash windows.

Horatio N. Howard House

The Horatio N. Howard House is a single-family house located at 403 North Saginaw in Pontiac, Michigan. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1984. History Horatio N. Howard, moved to Pontiac from Genesee, New York, in 1829 to open a general store. However, in 1832–1833 he purchased a large industrial property, which included a flour mill, a woolen factory, and a trip-hammer shop. He ran the business until 1845, when he sold two-thirds interest to A.A. Lull and Albert F. Draper. Howard sold the remaining interest two years later. Horatio Howard also had additional business interests in Pontiac, including a distillery and the construction of a mill dam, race, and machine shop. In 1849, Howard purchased the property on which this house sits; the house itself was likely built soon afterward. The Howard family owned the house until the 1870s. In 1887, it was purchased by Melvin D. Sly, who was born in Oakland County and was a member of the dry goods firm of J.S. Stockwell and Company. Sly owned the house until 1906. Description The Horatio N. Howard House is a two-story, end-gable, red brick Greek Revival house, with a one-and-one-half-story flank-gable wing. The house sits on a stone foundation. The main portion of the house has a low pitch roof with classical cornices with returns. The main facade contains a main entrance at one end, set into a recessed porch with fluted columns. The entrance is flanked by pilasters, and has sidelights and a transom. The side wing also has a low pitch roof with classical cornices with returns, and has a porch stretched across most of the front. The interior of the house contains a main staircase against one, with a hall leading to a pair of parlors connected by a large, segmental arch-head doorway. Each parlor contains a fireplace. The wing contains a modern kitchen, bathroom, and a separate apartment. The second floor is an L-plan, with three rooms.

Derby Street-Grand Trunk Western Railroad Bridge

The Derby Street-Grand Trunk Western Railroad Bridge is a bridge carrying Derby Street over the Grand Trunk Western Railroad in Birmingham, Michigan. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2000. History In the late 1910s, there was significant pressure to upgrade Woodward Avenue, a major artery carrying traffic from Detroit to Pontiac. In response, the road commissions of Wayne, Oakland and Macomb Counties and the affected municipalities created a regional master plan for improvements. In 1923, the state agreed to share in some of the cost of improving the infrastructure. The state led the effort to secure a right-of-way along the Woodward corridor; one of the major impediments was the existence of the Grand Trunk Western Railroad track paralleling Woodward. After protracted legal wrangling, the railroad and the state came to an agreement, and the tracks were shifted to a new location. As part of the new construction, a series of bridges were designed by the railroad to carry street over the new tracks. Sixteen bridges, including this one carrying Derby Street, were built by A. Guthrie & Company of St. Paul, Minnesota in 1930. The bridge was extensively renovated in 1980, and still carries traffic. Further repair was completed in 2007. The former GTW tracks currently serve as Canadian National Railway's Holly Subdivision. Description The Derby Street Bridge is a five-span concrete T-beam bridge. It is 165 feet long with a 43.2-foot wide deck. It carries a 29.8-foot-wide roadway. The railings are solid concrete, ornamented with three recessed panels per span and curving outward at each end. The construction date, "1930," is inscribed in the concrete near the ends of the railings. The abutments, wing walls, and piers are all of concrete construction.

Holly Union Depot

The Holly Union Depot is a former train station located at 223 South Broad Street in Holly, Michigan. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2000. It sits at the junction of tracks which are now owned by CSX Transportation and Canadian National Railway. History Saw and grist mills were established in what is now Holly in 1843 and 1844, and a village slowly grew up around them. However, real growth only began with the arrival of the Detroit and Milwaukee Railway (later the Detroit, Grand Haven and Milwaukee Railway and now part of the Canadian National Railway) in 1855. The D & M Railway constructed a small wooden depot, and soon replaced it with a better one. In 1864, a second railroad line, the Flint and Holly Railroad (now part of the CSX Saginaw Subdivision), was completed into Holly. The two rail lines co-operated to build a union depot to serve both lines, located at the site of the present depot. This wooden depot burned in 1884. The two railways created temporary space for passengers in their freight sheds, and in September 1885 contracted with Heitsch and Son of Pontiac to construct a new depot and baggage room. Construction began in October and was complete in February 1886. The depot served passengers on the two lines and their successors until 1964, when the Grand Trunk Western Railroad ceased passenger operations through Holly. It was later used as storage by the railroad, and in 1998 the village of Holly purchased the building. It has since been restored. As of 2018, the depot may be moved to another location. Description The Holly Union Depot is a long, single-story cross-gable-roof structure made from reddish-orange and yellow-buff brick on a stone foundation. It has broadly overhanging eaves supported by open triangular timber brackets. Gabled projections are on each long side; these once contained separate ticket offices for the two railways. A rectangular carved stone plaque is set into the facade of each projection, containing the town name, HOLLY, in raised capital letters. The building is eighty-two feet ten inches long and twenty-two feet four inches wide.
